oskrypuch Posted April 21, 2022 Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) OK, headed into Z-wave to complement my extensive insteon install, for obvious reasons. I would just buy the Z-Wave USB stick from UD for the Polisy, but the shipping (to Canada) is twice the cost of the unit! I should have just added it to my recent Polisy order!, But, if I have to splurge on the shipping, I suppose I will ... But, wondering if I could just grab the same stick from a more local supplier. Here is one, appears to be the same hardware: https://www.amazon.ca/Z-Wave-Stick-Assistant-HomeSeer-Software/dp/B07GNZ56BK/ref=sr_1_7 Anyone? * Orest Edited April 21, 2022 by oskrypuch

UD has them for $32.00. Just make sure you get the ZST10 700 and not the 500 You should also buy this adapter otherwise the dongle will block the other USB slot.

oskrypuch Posted April 21, 2022 Author Posted April 21, 2022 Oddly, looks like Smartest ships all over, but not to Canada, or there is a bug in their shopping cart. Amazon will get it to me tomorrow, so easiest. Description has 700 all over it. Thanks for the adapter fit tip. * Orest
oskrypuch Posted April 21, 2022 Author Posted April 21, 2022 Q: Do you ship to Canada? A: Unfortunately, we no longer ship to Canada. Most items we sell are available from Home Tech Solution, our partner located in Ottawa so you can purchase your Z-Wave devices locally, ~~~~~~~~~~ Yep, looks like they defer to a Canadian "partner", so won't ship to Canada. Will have a look there too. * Orest
oskrypuch Posted April 21, 2022 Author Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) And the Z-Wave Plus "plain" products, these are the older 500 series units. Z-Wave Plus v2 is only included in the 700. * Orest Edited April 22, 2022 by oskrypuch
GTench Posted May 1, 2022 Posted May 1, 2022 I bought the one from amazon.ca and is working fine for me with Polisy. Gary 1
oskrypuch Posted May 1, 2022 Author Posted May 1, 2022 I bought my 700 dongle here ... https://shophometechsolution.org/collections/zooz/products/zooz-zst10-700-series Apparently they are the Canadian partner to Smartest Home in the US. They have a ton of Z-Wave stuff, I've already purchased a number. I did want to add the Aeotech extender as a first step, but they don't carry it curiously. Aartech does, even though they don't have that many Z-Wave products, yet, anyway. https://www.aartech.ca/zw189/aeotec-zwave-plus-plug-in-range-extender-7.html On sale until May 2nd. * Orest
